THE JORAN CONCERT.
A Brilliant ARair-The Audience in
Rapfures.

The second of the series of concerts by
the Misses Joran and Signor Roselli was
given at the Opera House last even
ing before highly appreciative
audience, Rarely has it devolved upon
us to chronicle an event so successful
from musical point of view or one
marked throughout by such genuine
merit. The programme, which we give
below, was somewhat severely classical
and appealed to the tastes of the more
cultured section of the community. In
deed, none other than an ear gifted by
nature and trained to art could fully
enter into and realize the depth OF
meaning in the finer passages. Yet to
such one they were of kind which
took possession of the very soul. The
programme was as follows, though sew
eral additions were made in response to
encores:

Signor Roselli, and Misses Lula and
Pauline JOran.
The ;nitiatory trio may justly be des-
cribed as brilliant, though but fore
cast of what was to come. The vocal
effort of Signor Roselli, which succeeded
it, effectively illustrated the genius OF
the singer, which showed to equal, II
not greater, advantage in his later songs.
Miss Pauline's manipulation OF the
violin was mastery, and so it was pro-
nounced with an unanimous verdict, If
we may Judge from the plaudits which
greeted her. The audience were 10th to
part with SO talented a musician. The
spirited execution of ''Polonaise Bril-
lante" was no less remarkable than the
solemn strains which followed, and the
extreme delicacy of touch in the one
selection coupled with the holder meas
ure of the other showed mastery of the
instrument of a degree not often met
with. But the finest effort OF Miss
Pauline was the later one to which her
name is attached. It elected perfect
ovation of applause, and a temperance
was twice demanded.
The piano solo by Miss Lula was a
real treat. After being listened to with
rapt attention, clamorous appeal was
made for a further exhibition OF this
Iady's skill, which, like the other, was
characterized by marked good taste.
Miss Lula also played the accompani-
ments to voice and violin, the effect in
every instance being excellent.
The pianoforte solos by Miss Elise in
Guided some exquisitely pretty selec-
tions, which were rendered with consid-
cradle skill and marked her as pianist
of great promise.
AS whole the performance was one
of the best professional recitals ever
given in this city. That announced for
Saturday evening is described as popu-
lar, and it is due to these talented |
musicians that an extensive patronage !
